The production of extracellular polysaccharide, EPS WN9, from Paenibacillus sp. and its suitability as a viscosity modifying admixture for cement mortar mixing were investigated. After 48h culture in an optimized medium, cell growth and EPS production were 1.2g/L and 4.0g/L, respectively. By adding EPS WN9 to mortar, it was possible to prepare a homogeneous mortar without material segregation and excess air entrapment. The optimal amount of EPS addition to mortar found to be 0.02 to 0.05%(w/w) of the cement used. Increasing the dosage of EPS WN9 from 0 to 0.05%(w/w) resulted in a setting retardation of 0.14h to 0.8h and an increase in the compressive strength of mortar of 10 to 20%.

The significant structure theory of liquids has been successfully applied to the sodium ammonia solution. In applying the theory to sodium ammonia solution, we assumed there were four species in solution, i.e., sodium cation, solvated electron, triple ion, and free electron and equilibria existed between them. Based on these assumptions, we set up the model explaining the anomalous properties of sodium ammonia solution. The partition function for sodium ammonia solution is composed of the partition functions for the above four species and also for the Debye-Huckel excess free energy term. Agreements between calculated and experimental values of the thermodynamic quantities, such as molar volume, vapor pressure, partial molar enthalpy and entropy, and chemical potential as well as viscosity are quite satisfactory.

Hypertriglyceridemia a major cause of acute pancreatitis, accounting for up to 10% of all cases. The pathophysiological mechanism of hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute pancreatitis (HTGP) is presumed to involve the hydrolysis of triglycerides by pancreatic lipase resulting in an excess of free fatty acids and elevated chylomicrons, which are thought to increase plasma viscosity and induce ischemia and inflammation in pancreatic tissue. Although the clinical course of HTGP is similar to other forms of acute pancreatitis, the clinical severity and associated complications are significantly higher in patients with HTGP. Therefore, an accurate diagnosis is essential for treatment and prevention of disease recurrence. At present, there are no approved guidelines for the management of HTGP. Different treatment modalities such as apheresis/plasmapheresis, insulin, heparin, fibric acids, and omega-3 fatty acids have been successfully implemented to reduce serum triglycerides. Following acute phase management, lifestyle modifications including dietary adjustments and drug therapy are important for the long-term management of HTGP and the prevention of relapse. Additional studies are required to produce generalized and efficient treatment guidelines for HTGP.

연약지반의 압밀거동은 온도변화에 의하여 영향을 받는다. 연약 점토지반 내에 온도가 증가하면 간극수압이 증가하고 간극수압의 소산은 부피와 간극비를 감소시킨다. 또한 높은 온도는 간극유체의 점성을 감소시키므로 압밀속도가 빨라진다. 본 연구에서는 온도가 압밀침하량, 압밀시간, 간극수압과 같은 압밀거동에 미치는 영향을 분석하였으며, 이를 위하여 수리역학적(HM) 및 열수리역학적(THM) 거동에 대한 수치해석을 수행하였다. 열주입과 샌드드레인을 동시에 고려하였으며, 온도 변화 및 샌드드레인 직경 변화를 고려하여 해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과, 시료내부의 온도는 열원의 온도와 샌드드레인의 직경 증가에 따라 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 열주입은 과잉간극수압을 증가시키고 그에 따라 과압밀 영역에서는 추가적인 침하량을 유발하고 정규압밀 영역에서는 압밀시간을 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다.

희박상태나 극소장치에 관련된 기체운동을 해석하는 문제가 최근 중요한 연구주제로 부각되고 있다. 잘 알려진 DSMC와 더불어 모우멘트 기법, Chapman-Enskog 기법으로 분류되는 고차 비평형 유동 해석모델들이 이 문제에 적용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 Eu의 일반유체역학을 근간으로 이원자 기체에 관한 고차 해석모델을 개발하고자 한다. 회전 비평형 효과는 기체의 용적 점성계수에 관한 초과 수직응력을 고려하여 감안하였다. 개발된 계산모델을 일차원 충격파 내부구조와 단순 형상 외부의 희박 극초음속 유동장 해석에 적용하였다. 충격파 내부구조 및 전단유동 해석을 통해 회전 비평형에 의한 용적 점성계수 효과가 중요함을 확인하였다. 충격파 내부구조에 관한 이론적 예측이 실험과 잘 일치함도 확인하였다.

To obtain ceramic films, the sol-gel coating technique has been broadly used with heat treatment, but crack formation tend to occur during heat treatment in thick sol-gel films. We prepared PZT thin films by sol-gel method with single-step spin coating process. The PZT solution have been synthesized using lead acetate ($Pb(CH_3COO)_2$), zirconium acetylacetonate ($Zr(OC_3H_7^n)_4$), and titanium diisopropoxide bis(acetylacetonate) 75wt% in isopropanol ($Ti(OC_3H_7^i)_2(OC_3H_7^n)_2$) as starting materials and n-propanol was selected as a solvent. The poly(vynilpyrrolidone) (PVP) was added with 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1 molar ratios to control viscosity of solution. We investigated influence of the viscosity on thickness, microstructure, and electrical properties of final PZT films. Thermo-gravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimeter (TGA/DSC) was carried out from room temperature to $800^{\circ}C$ in order to measure pyrolysis temperature. Structural characteristics were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Ferroelectric and dielectric properties were measured by RT66A (Radiant) and impedance analyzer (Agilent), respectively. The thicknesses of PZT films depended on incorporation of an excess amount of PVP. Finally, we obtained PZT films of good quality without crack formation via single-step spin coating.

The prediction of pressure drop for a droplet flow in a confined micro channel is presented using FE-FTM (Finite Element - Front Tracking Method). A single droplet is passing through 5:1:5 contraction - straight narrow channel - expansion flow domain. The pressure drop is investigated especially when the droplet flows in the straight narrow channel. We explore the effects of droplet size, capillary number (Ca), viscosity ratio ($\chi$) between droplet and medium, and fluid elasticity represented by the Oldroyd-B constitutive model on the excess pressure drop (${\Delta}p^+$) against single phase flow. The tightly fitted droplets in the narrow channel are mainly considered in the range of $0.001{\leq}Ca{\leq}1$ and $0.01{\leq}{\chi}{\leq}100$. In Newtonian droplet/Newtonian medium, two characteristic features are observed. First, an approximate relation ${\Delta}p^+{\sim}{\chi}$ observed for ${\chi}{\geq}1$. The excess pressure drop necessary for droplet flow is roughly proportional to $\chi$. Second, ${\Delta}p^+$ seems inversely proportional to Ca, which is represented as ${\Delta}p^+{\sim}Ca^m$ with negative m irrespective of $\chi$. In addition, we observe that the film thickness (${\delta}_f$) between droplet interface and channel wall decreases with decreasing Ca, showing ${\delta}_f{\sim}Ca^n$ Can with positive n independent of $\chi$. Consequently, the excess pressure drop (${\Delta}p^+$) is strongly dependent on the film thickness (${\delta}_f$). The droplets larger than the channel width show enhancement of ${\Delta}p^+$, whereas the smaller droplets show no significant change in ${\Delta}p^+$. Also, the droplet deformation in the narrow channel is affected by the flow history of the contraction flow at the entrance region, but rather surprisingly ${\Delta}p^+$ is not affected by this flow history. Instead, ${\Delta}p^+$ is more dependent on ${\delta}_f$ irrespective of the droplet shape. As for the effect of fluid elasticity, an increase in ${\delta}_f$ induced by the normal stress difference in viscoelastic medium results in a drastic reduction of ${\Delta}p^+$.

본 연구는 1차압밀 중의 크리프의 영향과 Yin이 제안한 탄-점-소성 모델에 대한 적용성을 검토하였다. 탄성모델을 이용한 일반적인 압밀이론은, 1차압밀 과정을 표현할 수 있으나 2차압밀을 표현할 수 없다. 이러한 결과는 2차압축을 표현할 수 있는 점성에 기인하며, 때로는 Ladd 등(1977)이 제안한 가정 A 및 B와 같은 스케일효과(실험실 공시체와 현장조건 사이의 점토층 두께의 차이)와 관련되어진다. 통상적으로 1차압밀 중의 크리프의 존재는 많은 연구자에 의해 확인되어졌으며, 가정 B가 잘 맞는 것으로 되어있다. 한편, 대형압밀시험을 통해 가정 A와 B의 중간적인 특성이 Aboshi(1973)에 의한 가정 C로써 제안되어졌다. 본 연구에서는 1차압밀 중의 침하-시간관계에 대한 크리프의 영향을 명백히 하기 위해, peat와 점토에 대해 분할형 압밀시험기를 이용하여 가정 B의 압밀시험을 행하였다. 그리고 Yin의 탄-점-소성 모델을 이용하여 실험결과를 해석하였다. 얻어진 결과는 다음과 같다. 1차압밀 종료시에 분할 공시체의 압축은 과잉간극수압 소산속도의 차이에 의해 동일하지 않았다. 또한 분할형 압밀시험기에 의해 측정된 평균변형률과 Yin의 EVP 모델을 이용한 해석치는 잘 일치하였다. 그러나 과잉간극수압의 소산에 대해서는 측정치가 Yin 모델에 비해 빨리 소산되었다.

The fabrication process of zirconia gel-casting was studied to obtain dense zirconia on a large scale or with complicated shapes. As an experimental parameter, two different particle sizes ($0.1{\mu}m$ and $0.7{\mu}m$) of zirconia powder were applied to the gel-casting process. The viscosity behavior of slurries incorporating 40 vol% of zirconia powder was examined as a function of the dispersant content and the solid load to determine the optimum dispersion conditions. In addition, the gelation time with an initiator, the de-binding behavior, and the main factors affecting densification were examined. The densification of the gel-casted zirconia green body depended on the mixing ratio between the monomer and the dimer and on the zirconia particle size. A green body with a small particle size of $0.1{\mu}m$ showed less densification, with a relative density of 93%. This may be due to the excess number of bubbles created through interactions between the larger particle surface and polymer additives during the ball-milling process.
